Gloria Estefan 2023

Before the “Latin revolution” blitzed pop radio at the end of the 1990s and made Ricky Martin and Jennifer Lopez household names—and way ahead of the current dominance of artists like Bad Bunny and Rosalia—there was Gloria Estefan. The Cuban-born singer has one of the most inspiring rags-to-riches stories in the history of American popular music. The story of Gloria Estefan is one of strength and perseverance, of invention and reinvention, of rule-breaking and legacy-making. It is the American Dream.
